why the heck would u wanna do this? it be soo much cooler in 1st gear...plus u could shift to second and maybe third and roast them really nicely. :cheers

I'm pretty sure you can.

haha idk i was just thinkin like how if you're behind a RWD car an he does a burnout he can kick up all kindsa shit on your car. we're FWD so we can't do that. but like if you don't like the car in front of you then you could do a burnout in reverse and kick up some shit that way.

it will be MUCH harder on the drivetrain. When you do a "forward" burnout, all the weight shifts towards the rear of the car. If you do it in reverse, it will all shift forward. so not only will you have the weight of the engine over the tires but also some weight of the car.
I would advise you NOT to do it.
Plus who knows how strong of a gear it is. It's not designed to see that much of a load.

haha yea i was kinda wonderin how the reverse weight transfer would affect it too... but like with RWD and a regular 'foward' burnout you get the weight transfer to the back. but i guess it's not as much weight since the engine isn't back there :p

i don't really plan on actually doing this i was just wondering about it.

Haha G.I. Joe is the shit.

I saw three cops peel out hardcore in reverse when they got a call while eatting at waffle house.

Isn't the car on the ASOG main page doing a burnout in reverse? Or do you think the wind is just blowing the smoke that way? Always bugged me to see that picture. :P Looks funny. Go check it out!
